However, this has not stopped the inflow of migrants who

are desperate to escape conflicts, religious and ethnic

discrimination and lack of economic opportunity. Many

view seeking a better and more fulfilling life in Europe as

their only hope. Nevertheless, the journey often ends in

tragedy. The UN reports that more than 2,500 migrants

have died or vanished while crossing the Mediterranean

Sea so far this year, prompting the Malta Summit.

Nine Mediterranean and southern European politicians and

leaders, including Emmnauel Macron of France and Giorgia

Meloni of Italy were in attendance. One solution that arose

from the summit was strengthening border security

through more patrolling and cooperation with transit

countries such as Libya and Turkey, in order to abolish illegal

migration and human trafficking rings. Additionally, it is

essential to improve search and rescue operations in the

Mediterranean as well as improve asylum processes to

protect individuals who are in dire need of support. Most

importantly, the Summit recognised that the need to address

the root cause of migration was imperative and reaffirmed

the need for increased humanitarian aid to countries

which are facing economic stability.
